摘要

近年来,观察到讲师在学术水平增长和未晋升方面停滞不前,这与出版物产出有关。这就需要对尼日利亚各大学LIS讲师的出版物产出进行调查。采用描述性设计的是一份在线问卷,共得到86份回复。使用简单百分比、Tukey HSD检验和ANOVA对生成的数据进行分析。研究表明,LIS讲师的生产力是基于他们的专业和兴趣领域。晋升、对知识的贡献、同行认可、薪酬提高和保持现状(一致性/完全参与研究活动)等因素是他们发表文章的主要原因。时间限制、口译能力差、期刊社论高昂的出版费用以及期刊对稿件的高拒绝率阻碍了出版物的出版。来自不同地缘政治地区图书馆学校的LIS讲师的出版物数量具有统计学意义。因此,研究报告建议,政府和非政府组织应向讲师提供财政支持。这些资金应该是可获得的,条件是对研究进展有适当的反馈。各部门和机构还可以就合作研究的必要性组织研讨会或专题讨论会,并概述编写适合在声誉良好的期刊上发表的手稿的步骤,以避免被期刊编辑委员会拒绝。还应通过提供一段时间的工作假/假期来减轻讲师的工作量,以缓解工作和研究的紧张局势。

Publication Output of Lecturers in Library Schools, Nigeria
In recent times, there has been an observed stagnation of lecturers in terms of academic level growth and non-promotion, which is linked with publication output. This necessitated the investigation of LIS lecturers’ publication output in universities in Nigeria. The descriptive design was adopted using an online questionnaire, which yielded 86 responses. Data generated were analyzed using simple percentages, Tukey HSD tests, and ANOVA. The study revealed that the productivity of LIS lecturers is based on their area of specialty and interest. Factors such as promotion, contribution to knowledge, peer recognition, salary improvement, and staying current (consistency/complete involvement in research activities) were the major reasons that they publish. Time constraints, poor interpretation skills, exorbitant publication fees by journal editorials, and the high rejection rate of manuscripts by journals hinder publications. Statistical significance was observed in the number of publications of LIS lecturers from library schools in various geopolitical areas. The study therefore recommends that financial support from both government and non-governmental organizations should be made available to lecturers. Such funds should be accessible with the provision that there be appropriate feedback on research progress. Departments and institutions can also organize seminars or symposia on the need to collaborate in research, and outline steps on the preparation of manuscripts suitable for publication in reputable journals to avoid rejection by journal editorial boards. There should also be a reduction of workload for lecturers through the provision of work leave/vacation for some period of time to ease work and research tension.
